    Any "B" racer who's considering rocking up on the day and getting a race number will have to fight for the remaining "A" race places...

    What is the standard like in a B race? I am concerned about being lapped... what happens if you get lapped?

    My tactic was to say 'thank f$%k for that' and quit at the end of the current lap.

    Quite good at the sharp end, usually full of racers who haven't quite made the push to the A race yet..

    Usually not that strict on pulling people out of the race, though you finish on the same lap as the winner, even if you still have 5 to go...

    Going to be pushing plenty more riders into the A race this year, the B race shouldn't really have a super sharp end ... ;)
    Good competitive racing for all and progression are the main goals for the B race.

    I'm doing it so there's one person who won't lap you.
